“Beasts of England, beasts of Ireland, beasts of all lands and climes, hear my glad tidings of the golden future. » George Orwell's novel Animal Farm, Orwell, describes the corruption shown by Russia's communists as leaders gain more power. Socialism, communism and capitalism are very different but have one thing in common: their history of corrupt and greedy leaders. Although this novel depicts corruption within leadership, it has often been seen as lampooning communists due to Orwell's position as a socialist. At first, publishers were afraid to publish Animal Farm because of its anti-Soviet content, although today it is considered one of the hundred best English novels. The short-sightedness of leaders has reigned for centuries while people maintain the concept "this way is better", all of which is inevitably destroyed by ignorance, greed and wickedness. George Orwell discussed several interpretations of his classic Animal Farm, but we do not prevail under any of the ideals because of corrupt leaders. The novel began with Mr. Jones abusing his power over the animals and plunging into the luxury of their sweat like a flagrant drunk, but the story also ended with the same corruption. The only time power is used wisely is when animals unite for emancipation. Once the animals are freed, power struggles begin and corruption divides the animals. Corruption exists under the animal government just as it does under Mr. Jones' government, it's not the type of government but the type of characters within the government. David Futrelle's Capitalist Pigs expresses his opinion of the capitalist in the same portrait of corrupt leaders, whereas Orwell's work obviously covers the whole spectrum. Apparently, knowing Orwell's work is not enough, but some must emulate his success and add their two cents. Orwell set the stage for this type of allegory and of course we have people who ride success just so they can get their piece of the pie. Where were these people when publishers were afraid to publish Animal Farm, because of its controversy. Even TS Elliot called Animal Farm "generally Trotskyist" and rejected publication of his manuscript, but when fear of controversy subsided, everyone praised Orwell for his work. Orwell created Napoleon as a representation of communist leader Joseph Stalin and, much like Stalin, Napoleon promised and somewhat delivered early on that his way was better.
